Synopsis
The wit of Oscar Wilde meets the genius of Sherlock Holmes when Wilde brings his friend Lillie Langtry, toast of the London stage, to Baker Street. A wicked professor is blackmailing “the Jersey Lily” over stolen material so compromising it could bring the Crown of England to its knees. Can Holmes solve the mystery in time to prevent a scandal? Can Oscar Wilde complete his first draft of The Importance of Being Forthright? Can the gallant Watson survive falling head-over- heels for the irresistible Jersey Lily?
